"Leave It Alone" lyrics

"Leave It Alone"

Don't nobody tell me
That God don't have a sense of humor
'Cause now that I want to live
Well, everybody around me is dyin'
Now that I finally wanna live
The ones I love are dyin'

Becoming friends with a noose that I made
And I keep trying to untie it
Make it into something useful
Or maybe hang it through a window pane
Turn it into a fire escape

It tastes so bitter
On my tongue
The truth's a killer
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone

You don't remember
My name somedays or
That we're related

It triggers my worry
Who else am I gonna lose before
I am ready
And who's gonna lose me

It tastes so bitter
On my tongue
The truth's a killer
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it a-

If you know love
You best prepare to grieve
Let it into your open heart and
Then prepare to let it leave

It tastes so bitter
The truth's a killer
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it alone

But I can't leave it alone
But I can't leave it a-
But I can't leave it a-

"Leave It Alone" was premiered on January 30, 2020, accompanied by music video which features Williams as an insect waking up in a cocoon.
"It really sucks that you do have to dig through the dirtiest shit to find like the diamonds," Hayley told Zane Lowe about this track. "Like you've got to burn all of it off."
